Related: About this forumLuckiest Music Generation (makeup): The Eagles - Take It Easy
I forgot to post a tune yesterday, so here's one to make up for it.
Is it just me, or does most of modern country now sound like 90% of the 1970s Eagles catalog?
Just wondering if I'm the only one who's noticed it?

It isn't just you. A lot of modern country does sound like '70s country rock.

Hard to believe that these major talents lived next to each other and were friends!

That makes it even more cool.

Gone are the single instrument, banjo or guitar, twangy or craggy voices belting out in harmony..
What I tend to hear around here in east TN is blue grass more than modern country. Some of it is really good. But it's not the old timey music I use to hear.
